New Review Out!
Can we truly build life from the bottom up by encapsulating proteins we find in nature? Or should we instead also bottom-up design the proteins we utilize?

New Review out!
Can we eventually design not only proteins, but entire cells from scratch? Check out the review I wrote in @natrevbioeng about how to combine protein design with synthetic cell science. @SchwilleLab
